SJ Magazine
“Donning paisley-patterned vests and espousing the joys of healthy, yummy food, the Paisley Pickles are pickling the interest of SJ’s pint-sized rockers – not to mention their parents The savory spice that fuels Picklemania has a lot to do with the parents of the group’s young fans. Those twenty- and thirty-somethings are just as likely to dance and sing to the infectious, family- friendly fare as their smaller companions. With those Gen X and Y parents – whose own musical tastes typically veer more to the Beatles, The Ramones and Green Day than Barney and Bieber – the Pickles’ career is flavorful.”read the full article

First Night, Haddonfield, NJ
“There aren’t many groups out there that can rock the house and keep such a diverse group of people happy and on their feet more. This group brings a unique combination of talent, energy and personality that is far too rare in our industry today. They have a great following of ‘Pickle Heads’ that prove to be loyal fans. A great choice for festivals and events where kids (both adult and young ones) want to have a fun filled time.”

“We engaged Paisley Pickles for our Fall Festival, a very large entertainment event with a 20 year history. The band performed in our Family/Children’s area. Their two shows were very well received by large and enthusiastic audiences. The guys were a pleasure to work with and highly professional. I would definitely recommend them and would definitely consider them for future family programming in this venue.”

The Discovery Museum, Cherry Hill, NJ“We recently celebrated our sweet 16th birthday with a month-long schedule of activities, including a Paisley Pickles concert, and I can definitely say those guys know how to party. The Garden State Discovery Museum is a very hands-on, educational play-space for children infant to ten, and I always look for programs that reflect the interactive nature of our exhibits. The Paisley Pickles were totally engaging, always aware of and completely appealing to a wide range of audience and tons of fun. Their songs are unique; their style is exuberant; and their presence is energized and inspiring. I can not wait to have them back!”

Wizard’s Festival of Fun, Cape May, NJ
“The Paisley Pickles excelled at their recent appearance at our Independence Day Festival. The event lasted more than four hours and they played with energy, verve and sincerity from start to finish. They always had a large family audience at their location in spite of all the other competing elements at the event. Their professionalism makes them a pleasure to work with. We will book The Paisley Pickles again and heartily recommend them.”
